Sometimes after the photo session is finished, when I check the computer, it turns out that some of the photos are not sharp enough. It's impossible to take another photo, but if not the photo won't be sharp enough. So, you can really try some of the tips below to sharpen your photos:
1. Unsharp the mask
For those of you who frequently use Photoshop, you're definitely not familiar with this tool, yep, unsharp masks are widely used for editing photos. By using 3 kinds of factors, you can change it according to what you want.
- Amount: Refers to the intensity of sharpness
- Radius: The sharpening distance around the pixel
- Threshold: Sharpness starts at two different points in brightness.

2. Smart sharpener
Apart from the unsharp mask, you can also use a smart sharpen. You can choose from several available options which one is most appropriate for sharpening your photo.
Usually the sharpening process on photos is done last after everything is finished, such as cleaning the image, adjusting colors, etc.

3. Lightroom
Lightroom is a program that is quite widely used for editing photos. In the sharpen feature there are 4 parts, namely amount, radius, detail and masking. You can press the “alt” key and your photo changes to black and white. Swipe right and left to see changes to your photo. Usually when the amount is increased, the photo will become more noisy.
